Chapter 10: Finding Alexander
George POV
I desperately looked for my beloved Alexander for the path three months in the cold winter of Texas, I and along with my old fellow soldiers search desperately for my son. For these past three months have been nothing but hell without Alexander in our family. When I learn that my son has been forcefully been taking away by the devil of his biological father. After reporting every to the police and the FBI, this became a haywire of an Amber Alert. From what my old friend, John Adams, told me is that James Hamilton Sr has escape prison after being locked up for Domestic Violence and Attempted kidnapping on a five-year-old boy about three years ago. Somehow this monster has gotten information about Alexander being adopted into my family and living alone in that apartment complex.
I should've known there was a sudden change on Alexander behavior. He became quieter than his loud outgoing himself. My son never came to school for the rest of the week, ...the week when he was taken away from him. Martha burst into tears horrified and worried for our son safety, Lafayette snaps out of nowhere in since he usually the calm and quiet one but with his strong brothership with Alexander, I was afraid that my youngest son would do something drastic.
I finally clam Lafayette down before he burst into tears when we call the security footage from Alexander apartment. When I saw that monster bashing Alexander head onto the brick wall and I know I saw a trick of blood rolling down his face. Tears were streaming my face as I didn't hesitate to call in some old friends in order to look for my son. The police and FBI told me to stay put as they looked for Alexander but I can't just sit back and do nothing. My son needs me, just as I need him to be part of our family again. I won't let this monster take him away from us.
Lafayette and Martha stay back home waiting for me and Alexander to return back home safe and sound. Every day and night I pray to the Lord heaven above in order to keep Alexander safe and sound. I remember the first day when I adopted him, Alexander was distant and quiet at first but when Lafayette came into our smiles, I finally saw his first true smile. That when I knew that Martha and I have finally got the family that we hope for.
Though now our family is put at risk because of that monster, who has taken our son away. When I saw his apartment empty leaving nothing behind except for the letter and the USB. Old Peggy hasn't been herself, she often cried on Lafayette lap before falling asleep. This situation has taken a great toll on us, especially me the most since I haven't slept much lately and I won't until I find Alexander.
Traveling down the snowy path of the wooden forest of Texas, My men and I were about to give up after looking for Alexander for the past two hours. We began calling out his name for a little while as the sun slowly began setting down from the midnight skies.
"Alexander! Alexander Hamilton!" I shouted while hearing my voice began echoing in the distance where we didn't hear anything but silence. Soon Adams and other men's began shouting Alexander's name nonstop.
"Alexander Hamilton, are you here! Give us a shout!" John Adams shouted before walking around the area.
No sound came across from with our distance but suddenly we heard gunshots. We took cover and decided to split us in order to cover more ground and avoiding the gunshots that were shooting at us. I took the North side of the forest while it seems like the shooter was targeting me for a moment. I manage to avoid all the bullets of them before suddenly everything went silent for a moment. Breathing heavily after the surprise attack that has startled my men and I. Knowingly that I been separated from the rest of the men for the time being.
I notice a river creek nearby in which I use the direction of the Northern star as I walked in the cold water of the creek. Luckily no sound can hear from within the river as I continue to creep down the path until suddenly I notice a cabin near about within a mile or two. I suddenly only see only one room that has the lights on. My heart began to fill the hole in my heart as I hope it was my darling son of Alexander. Rushing through the course of the river path, not caring if I were to slip into the cold freezing water of the river.
I wasn't sure how far I was deep in the forest until suddenly the gunshots began attempting to strike me. I began racing through the river creek once again in order to avoid being shot. I crouch down onto the ground before returning the shots. I pull the trigger a couple of times in which I heard a painful grunt sound. I manage to get ahead from the shooter before hiding in the bushes while listening the bloodhound were sniffing and barking as they pass through me.
I was about to escape of my hiding before feeling the barrel of a rifle touching my forehead. I intended to stay quiet but the bloodhound growled and began barking.
"Get out of the bushes" a voice growled
Slowly making my way out of the bushes before facing the man that took Alexander away from me and my family. This monster directly stares at me with pure hatred that he has just for me. I didn't show any fear nor other emotions that this man desire once he corners me. Knowingly that if I make any sudden movement or anything to trigger this man, I'm a goner.
"Well...If isn't it George Washington" James spoke
"Where's Alexander? Where is he?!" I ask
